Daily 7am-8pm
Wonderful spot – We spent three wonderful nights in very comfortably furnished rooms with access to a common parlor featuring books and memorabilia of Ambrose Bierce the celebrated author of the "Devil's Dictionary" and the famous short story "Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge".
The home was beautifully apponted, with an outdoor hot tub, and within minutes walk of downtown restaurants and shops.
Innkeeper John was most gracious, well versed in local lore, and a marvelous guide to the valley wineries -- apparently totalling 650! He is a vintner himself and proudly serves his own label with the evening wine and cheese.
Seriously gourmet breakfasts were prepared by both John and Lisa, and were superb.
We will definitely be back when next we visit Napa.
Napa Valley Charmer – We stayed here for our 5th anniversary and had a great time. The Breakfast was wonderful, the rooms perfect and clean and the evening wine and cheese were great. Our host ( John ) new all about the valley and got us into some great smaller wnieries. We will be back
John and his wife were such a joy to have as guests. We spent a lot of time at the wine and cheese hour laughing with the other guests. Thank you for the great review. I hope to see you for your next anniversary.
Lisa and John
Editorial Review – 1872 Victorian B&B in Napa Valley offers four luxury suites with private baths; two rooms offer Jacuzzi tubs and fireplaces.

Comment posted Scottish Power Renewables announces another delay for proposed Tiree Array by Tim McIntyre.
W.S. – "…there are now in excess of 30,000 derelict wind turbines littering, mainly, California and Hawaii."
Really? Where did you get this from? The Daily Mail?
Try: http://www.renewablesinternational.net/the-conventional-energy-sector-is-running-scared/150/537/33486/
Quote: "Fortunately, over the years nearly all those turbines have been removed and of the 11,000 wind turbines in California today only some 500 remain derelict. That's still 500 too many, but it certainly isn't 3,000 or 14,000."
Or, if you prefer:
Tim McIntyre also commented
- Lowry – the subsidy you are referring to is very small in the scheme of things. If you live in Argyll, your electricity is already heavily subsidised because the cost of building and maintaining the vast and fragile network of distribution lines is far greater than the income from local consumers can justify.
If communities can take the initiative to tap into their local resources of water and wind on a small scale in order to generate an income for local projects, what's not to like?
- Karl – if Tilley is generating, then effectively its output IS being used locally, as it will reduce the import of electricity through the grid connection. Any plant that is designed to work in conjunction with the grid cannot generate if the connection is lost due to cable failure etc. – a basic technical limitation due to the need for power supply & demand to be at all times matched, and the requirement for voltage and frequency to be kept within the tight limits needed to run modern electrical equipment and appliances.
I take it what you mean is that you would prefer the contractual arrangement between the owners of Tilley and local consumers to be direct, rather than going through an electricity supply company. There's no reason in principle why this could not be done – it would require a supply company set up to take Tilley's output, combine it with backup power bought in from the grid, and then sell it on to any local consumers willing to sign up to it. Not impossible, but it would have to compete with the other suppliers in the market presumably.
The system on Eigg is completely independent, but that does not come without restrictions – all consumers have a maximum demand trip which costs them a 'fine' if they accidentally put too much load on the system. There is also a sizeable diesel generator needed to back up the renewable sources. All this added up to a high capital cost, but not as high as the cost of a grid connection to the mainland. That decision was made on economic grounds, not because of any romantic notion of energy independence.
In the mean time, Tilley is presumably generating income for community projects?
- The main innovation seems to be ever-larger turbines, so there may be limited scope for direct re-use of towers until that levels off.
Steel is very recyclable, though.
- As I understand it windfarm developers are required to put in place a bond to cover the cost of decommissioning in the event of the owner going bust – similar arrangements exist as part of the planning conditions for other large developments such as quarries, etc.
- Agreed – a large proportion of energy use and CO2 emissions are related to space & water heating and this is the ideal function for biomass. The potential for dispersed local fuel supply operations also offers rural employment prospects and minimisation of fuel transport.
By contrast, large scale conversion of biomass to electricity involves expensive and unsustainable transport of the fuel, which has a low energy density, as well as losing around 60% of the energy as waste heat. Small scale CHP systems for district heating and wintertime electricity generation are more efficient & will have a part to play where the economics work.
Unfortunately the RHI does nothing for 'conventional' woodstove installations for space &/or water heating – only automated pellet, chip & log boilers.
Recent comments by Tim McIntyre
- Problems with both pro-indy and pro-union campaigns
"Johnson is also the Mayor of the UK's biggest USP – the majestic London.
Most of us wouldn't want to live there but who doesn't want it as 'ours' – the international envy of its huge economic engine…"
I'm pretty sure this is the first time I have seen the conspicuous and ever-increasing concentration of the UK nations' wealth and power in London portrayed as the 'positive case for the union'
- PR gaffes in Community Land Scotland's 'Bunchrew Land Declaration'
Is it just me, or does this article, and the comments which follow, concentrate solely on sniping at the title of the initiative because no-one has anything interesting to say about its intent?
From Rhoda Grant's quote above: "The declaration also acknowledges the deep divisions in Scotland's land ownership patterns addressing the terrible reality that fewer than 500 people own half of Scotland's land."
That statistic is surely a pretty shocking anachronism in the 21st century isn't it?
- Donors, public money and funding the independence referendum campaigns
Karl – "…if the SG ( SNP) had pushed the devo-max option I would have supported it 100%"
They did. It was Westminster that refused the third option on the ballot paper.
- The no-no campaign
Jamie – I'm not sure if your point is about corroboration or democracy. Majority governing parties pushing through unpopular measures despite opposition is hardly indicative of a democratic crisis – it happens all the time in Westminster, where coalition government is the exception not the rule.
In Scotland at the moment, there is a combination of lack of voter participation (turnout at Holyrood elections far too low) and a lack of credible opposition (other major parties sending all their best & brightest to serve in Westminster where the real power lies). Those two factors could be argued to mean that our democracy functions less than effectively. Oh, and the lack of a constitution or other means to check the power of politicians.
- The no-no campaign
That's fine in principle Robert, but I think there is a fair expectation that journalists will at least try to interrogate people in positions of high authority who make assertions that are of crucial importance to a debate – you can't dismiss something said by Mr Barroso as a mere 'opinion', like yours or mine – he's the president of the EC! Marr should have gone into strong devil's-advocate mode (as he did with Salmond) and drilled down into WHY Barroso thinks that. Perhaps it would have been genuinely enlightening, or perhaps we would have seen just as much prevarication as you say he got from Salmond.
As former BBC Scotland journalist Derek Bateman said on his blog afterwards: "If you have a title, you get automatic respect from the national broadcaster, no matter what you actually say."

Found these yellow lupines last week at about 8,000 feet where there was still snow in the shaded areas. The bottom more orange blossoms on the lupine are the ones that have been pollinated. They were just about the only thing blooming up there, except for those little blue numbers at the bottom which are called Blue-Eyed Mary. And what a view from up there. I took some photos and will probably paint some of those views in the winter time when I'm snowed in here, unless I have time to go up there again soon.

Project Update
Financial Statements of Not-for-Profit Entities
(Project was renamed after the removal of the Not-for-Profit Financial Reporting: Other Financial Communications project from the technical agenda.)
The staff has prepared this summary of Board decisions for information purposes only. Those Board decisions are tentative and do not change current accounting. Official positions of the FASB are determined only after extensive due process and deliberations.
Project Objective(s)
*Decisions Reached at Last Meeting
*Summary of Decisions Reached to Date
*Next Steps
*Board/Other Public Meeting Dates
*Background Information
*Contact Information
Project Objective(s)
The objective of this project is to reexamine existing standards for financial statement presentation by not-for-profit entities, focusing on improving:
- Net asset classification requirements
- Information provided in financial statements and notes about liquidity, financial performance, and cash flows.
On January 29, 2014 the Board discussed the FASB's agenda prioritization and voted to add or remove certain projects from its or the Emerging Issues Task Force's (EITF) agenda. At that meeting the Board voted to remove Not-for-Profit Financial Reporting: Other Financial Communications project. Please find the press release here.
*Decisions Reached at Last Meeting (March 12, 2014)
Presentation and Disclosure of Liquidity
The Board discussed the objective of providing liquidity information and agreed that the objective is to provide information that allows donors, creditors, and other users to assess the liquidity of a not-for-profit (NFP) entity. That includes providing information that enables users to identify and understand the effects of restrictions placed on an NFP's assets, including designations by its board of directors, and the extent to which existing obligations impose demands for cash as they become due.
The Board discussed several ways that NFP entities could improve the financial information they provide about liquidity. Those ways include:
- Providing a classified statement of financial position
- Distinguishing assets limited as to use from other assets, either on the face of the statement of financial position or in notes
- Disclosing information in notes to financial statements about the nature, timing, amount, and effects on liquidity of external restrictions imposed by donors, contracts, and other sources as well as limits imposed by an entity's board of directors.
- Disclosing specific information in notes to financial statements about an entity's liquidity, which includes information such as (a) assets that can be liquidated to meet near-term demands (a time horizon determined by the NFP), (b) policies on the use of liquidity reserves in managing liquidity and liquidity risks, (c) past liquidity issues and whether they remain risks, and (d) existing conditions and circumstances that are known and are reasonably possible to affect an entity's cash flow trends and liquidity.
*Summary of Decisions Reached to Date (March 12, 2014)
Operating Measure
The Board tentatively decided to define an intermediate operating measure on the basis of two key dimensions:
- A mission dimension based on whether resources are from or directed at carrying out an NFP's purpose for existence
- An availability dimension based on whether resources are available for current period activities, and reflecting both external limitations and internal actions of an NFP's governing board.
Net Assets
The Board tentatively decided to replace the existing requirements of presenting totals for each of three classes of net assets on the face of a statement of financial position and for changes in each of those classes on the face of a statement of activities with similar requirements for each of two classes of net assets that convey net assets with donor-imposed restrictions and without donor-imposed restrictions.
The Board also tentatively decided to retain the current requirement to provide information about the nature and amounts of different types of donor-imposed restrictions but modify the requirement to (a) remove the hard-line distinction between temporary restrictions and permanent restrictions and (b) focus instead on describing differences in the nature with a focus on both how and when the resources (net assets) can be used. To present potential loss of information, the Board further decided to require disclosure of information about the amount and purposes of board designations of net assets without donor-imposed restrictions.
Statement of Cash Flows
The Board tentatively decided to improve the statement of cash flows by requiring the direct method of reporting cash flows provided [used] by operating activities and removing the requirement to reconcile the change in net assets to net cash flows from operating activities (often referred to as the indirect method). The Board also discussed revising the cash flow categories to better align them with the tentative decision for an intermediate measure of operations. Detailed revisions are available here.
Reporting of Expenses
The Board tentatively decided to require NFPs to report expenses by their nature and retain the requirement to report expenses by their function. The Board further decided to require NFPs to provide an analysis of all expenses by function and by nature in one location, in the statement of activities, a separate statement of expenses (currently called a statement of functional expenses), or a schedule in the notes. That analysis would include all expenses, both operating and non-operating, and would neither require nor preclude functionalization of non-operating expenses. Although this analysis would typically be provided in the form of a matrix, that specific format would not be required.
Also, the Board tentatively decided to require NFPs to include a net presentation of investment expenses against investment return on the face of the statement of activities, with the types and amounts of investment expenses disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. The Board further directed the staff to conduct additional research on what types of investment-related fees and other investment expenses would be required to be disclosed as investment expense.
Presentation of Revenues, Expenses, and Other Changes in Net Assets
The Board tentatively decided to allow flexibility to present revenues, expenses, and other changes in net assets using a one- or two-statement approach. As mentioned above, the Board tentatively decided that NFPs reporting an intermediate measure of operations would no longer be required (under 958-225-45-10) to report that measure in a statement that also reports the change in unrestricted net assets for the period.
The Board discussed the objective of providing liquidity information and agreed that the objective is to provide information that allows donors, creditors, and other users to assess the liquidity of a not-for-profit (NFP) entity. That includes providing information that enables users to identify and understand the effects of restrictions placed on an NFP's assets, including designations by its board of directors, and the extent to which existing obligations impose demands for cash as they become due.
The Board discussed several ways that NFP entities could improve the financial information they provide about liquidity including providing a classified statement of financial position, distinguishing assets limited to use, disclosing liquidity information in the individual notes to financial statements, and/or including a specific liquidity note. Board members expressed differing degrees of support and reservations about requiring one or more of the alternatives stated above, including the degree to which they may overlap and might result in redundant disclosures. The Board instructed the staff to conduct further research and analysis on the implications of requiring various alternatives and how they would be portrayed in an NFP's financial statements and notes.
*Next Steps
During the week of March 10 and 17, the staff will seek Project Resource Group (PRG) members' (a) feedback on Board decisions to date and (b) input on upcoming topics related to matters of presentation in financial statements of not-for-profit entities (NFPs). The two main upcoming topics are:
- Continuing its research on ways to improve information about liquidity.
- Improving NFP specific note disclosures.
For the project timeline, refer to the technical plan.
*Board/Other Public Meeting Dates
The Board meeting minutes are provided for the information and convenience of constituents who want to follow the Board's deliberations. All of the conclusions reported are tentative and may be changed at future Board meetings. Decisions become final only after a formal written ballot to issue a final standard.

*Background Information
On November 9, 2011, the FASB chairman announced (press release) the addition of two agenda projects—this standards-setting project and a research project (Not-for-Profit Financial Reporting: Other Financial Communications)—intended to improve financial reporting of not-for-profit entities. The objectives of these projects encompass suggestions received by the Board from its Not-for-Profit Advisory Committee (NAC) at the Committee's September 2011 meeting. The staff discussed the plans and approach for both projects with the NAC at its March 2012 and September 2012 meetings. Furthermore, the staff has subsequent discussions with members of the project resource group as well as members of NAC. The NAC page contains handouts and minutes from the NAC meetings.
On January 29, 2014 Agenda prioritization meeting, the Board voted to remove Not-for-Profit Financial Reporting: Other Financial Communications project.

Quick Tip:
Don't overdo--it just takes 3-4 turns for a fresh dose of colour.
See what our Insiders say:
Lasts all day long!
Quickliner for Eyes Intense is the bread and butter to my make-up collection; it's a staple! I use this product in Intense Black every morning on my bottom eyelid before work to give my eyes a bit of definition. It lasts all day long, I never need to re-apply during my work day.
For special occasions it's perfect to create that dramatic defined eye. I create this look for myself by applying more on my top and bottom eyelids while using the spongey end to make bold yet soft, natural looking lines. I'd love to try different colors of this product to create unique looks. Clinique offers Quickliner for Eyes Intense in Intense Chocolate (yum!), Intense Plum, and Intense Ivy among other colors.
Another great feature of this eyeliner is that it is easily removed with simple make-up remover. I've never had any issues with it irritating my eyes one bit; which I love. Bonus - no sharpening is needed!
My eyes are now the staring attraction!
Love Clinique's Quickliner for Eyes Intense! The liner creates a sharper line than my usual pencil liner and has a richer, longer lasting color. I also appreciate the smudge tool which is great for creating smoky eyes for dramatic evening looks. Coupled with my fave eye shadow colors, the liner gives my eyes that POP! - adding to my overall appearance. Definitely a staple in my makeup bag!Read Full Review

Life in ethanol era
By TOM J. BECHMAN
Remember those once-upon-a-time days when corn sold for 20 cents either side of $2 per bushel year after year? If you want to go way back, before the Earl Butz "fencerow-to-fencerow" farming days, all the way back to the 1960s, corn sold for 20 cents either side of about $1.10 per bushel, year after year.
Farmers struggled in the 1960s, and they struggled in more recent times with corn on either side of $2 per bushel. Remember how farmers kept their heads above water by "farming the government"? Or remember when the battle for acres between commodities wasn't an annual event?
Key Points
• Take a look at ethanol five years after the big change.
• Indiana corn producers near plants typically see better basis.
• Not all the impacts of ethanol are positive.
Those years are not as far back as it now seems.
"Ethanol has absolutely changed the landscape of agriculture in Indiana," says Chris Hurt, a Purdue University ag economist. "The closest thing to this was the boom in exports from 1972 to 1981, but this time we did it in five years. The only other similar demand surges in the last hundred years were during world wars I and II."
Ethanol and corn
This story and related stories in this issue look back at the past five years and the effect ethanol has had on corn prices. It hasn't all been positive, especially for livestock producers. But there's no question it's been a game-changer. The goal of these stories is to reflect on the ethanol story and who it has impacted and why, especially in Indiana.
Mike Shuter, a grain and livestock producer, Frankton, and president of the Indiana Corn Marketing Council, lobbied hard for years to get plants to Indiana. With a Poet ethanol plant at nearby Alexandria, he's switched his rotation to two-thirds corn and one-third soybeans. He says the benefits of ethanol for farmers have far exceeded his original expectations.
Basis boost
"We're seeing a lot stronger basis levels than ever before," Shuter says. He's referring to his local area, affected by having an ethanol plant nearby.
"This year [2011] we had 25 cents per bushel over basis at harvest, and before the plants came online, at 30 cents under," he explains.
Not every change in the ethanol era is positive, even for grain producers.
"Yes, inputs and cash rents have gone up, but we're still seeing better profits, margins and opportunities," Shuter notes.
"We have to do a better job of marketing, now, though, because of the increased volatility," he concludes.
Ethanol enthusiast: Mike Shuter fought hard to get ethanol plants into Indiana. He believes Indiana agriculture has benefited, despite certain drawbacks.

A Customer wants to add another radiator to a monoflow heating loop. The new radiator will be in the basement. I'm not working on it somebody I work with is. He is a part timer and I'm very concerned that he did not get all the info needed. The basement has never had a Radiator before now He is adding new monoflow tee's, but does he need to up size the pump. I'm told the heat lines are in the ceiling of the basement so he is doing drops down for the basement radiator. Is this right. I know how monoflow works but would not know how to really set it up, and adding to it is another ball game. If I had more info I would give it. I'm asking because if there is a problem later I will be the one sent back because I know about heating than other guys in the shop. I would like to know what was done wrong.
Thank you all for the info Pat

Known for their lofty views of the Cedar River, the trails, cabins and campsites of the Palisades-Kepler State Park have endured the flood with one exception. The remote bridge at the intersection of the Cool Hollow Trail and the river-side trail is no longer filled with dappled sunlight and the footfalls of hikers because it is now filled almost to the top with mud. Other bridges along the river-side trail and the Cool Hollow Trail have not been affected and are passable.

– Song by Groucho Marx
This is a ridiculously clumsy way to segue into a discussion of one aspect of cancer, et al., that I haven't really written about before, or maybe I have and have totally forgotten about it. It's the lousy gift that keeps on giving, seemingly forever: The full-on assault that cancer, Hepatitis C, etc., and the various medical remedies for same mount on one's brain. I'm experiencing it a lot lately, and it's about as much fun as having a wisdom tooth pulled by a first-year dental student, while two weasels do battle inside your BVDs.
You find your once fairly intelligent mind turning out stumblebum thoughts like, "Hey, I'm alive, but I can't remember who the ---- I am or what the ---- I'm supposed to be doing. I think I'll celebrate by going out, finding a beach with a kickass undertow and a reputation for shark attacks, stuff my swimming trunks with raw hamburger and take a nice, refreshing swim."
"Do you have change for a twenty?"
"Sure. Here's two fifties and I'll have to owe you the rest."
"It's a shame that Caine and Perry dropped out of the Republican primaries; either one of them would have made a first-class chief executive."
In my case, I was already laboring under a stupendous burden: dyslexia runs in my family, and I was born with a world-class case of it that worsened as I grew older. Of course, no one in the family ever told me about it; we were classic WASPs, of the "Uncle Stuyvesant has always been a bit different; you know; he'll probably offer to carve the turkey, but whatever you do don't let him near the carving knives" variety.
That was frustrating enough – for example, it took me three years of practice before I could successfully tie my shoes and graduate from being a pathetic Webelos to being a not-quite-so-pathetic Wolf Scout in the mysterious Cub Scout hierarchy….
But when the so-called "mind fog" produced by Hepatitis C began to manifest itself, I really got gonged; and when I was diagnosed with cancer and began a program of chemotherapy, wham-o, brain cells began quitting their jobs and staying home to play Sudoku and smoke ganja all day. Anyone who has had chemo knows what I'm talking about. And just as no one in my nutball family thought to inform me I might be dyslexic, I don't recall anyone warning me that chemotherapy might result in my dropping out of contention for the next round of MacArthur Genius grants (or whatever the blazes they're called; I used to know, until Cisplatin and his sidekick Gemzar mugged me behind the abandoned feldspar quarry…).
(To be continued, unless I forget…)

Pectus excavatum describes an abnormal formation of the rib cage that gives the chest a caved-in or sunken appearance.
Funnel chest
Pectus excavatum is a congenital (present at birth) abnormality that can be mild or severe. It usually develops during pregnancy.
It is caused by too much growth of the connective tissue that joins the ribs to the breastbone. This causes the sternum to malform inward. The child typically has a depression in the center of the chest over the sternum, and this may appear quite deep.
If pectus excavatum is severe, it may affect the heart and lungs, making exercise difficult. Also, the appearance of the chest may cause psychological difficulty for the child.
Pectus excavatum may occur as the only abnormality, or together with other syndromes. Often, patients also have a heart problem called mitral valve prolapse.
Pectus excavatum will often occur by itself without any family history or other defects or problems. Other causes include:
Contact your health care provider if:
Your health care provider will perform a physical examination. An infant with pectus excavatum may have other symptoms and signs that, when taken together, define a specific syndrome or condition.
The health care provider will also ask questions about you or your child's medical history, such as:
Tests may be done to rule out suspected disorders. These tests may include:
Pulmonary or cardiac function tests may be done to determine how severely the lungs and heart are affected.
This condition can be surgically repaired. Surgery is generally advised if you have other problems, such as trouble exercising. In addition, some people undergo surgery for cosmetic reasons. Your health care provider can help you make decisions about your therapy.

More rain has fallen since Friday than the entire month of JuneMonday, July 4th, 2011
It's only the 4th of July, but more rain has already fallen this month at Palm Beach International Airport than the entire month of June.
Total rain since Friday: 3.21 inches, 2.54 inches over average for the young month. We had .62 of an inch on Friday, a gully-washing 2.17 inches on Saturday and .42 of an inch on Sunday.
Just 3.19 inches fell at PBIA in June.
You can credit the trough that moved off the East Coast last week but remained draped over South Florida until Sunday morning. High pressure has built back in over the Southeastern U.S., but that doesn't mean rain is out of the picture for Palm Beach.
A tropical wave to our east will move through the area Wednesday and Thursday, increasing rain chances from 20 percent to 50 percent. No development of the system is expected.
* * * * *
New normal temperatures for cities in the U.S., released by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Friday, increased by about half a degree.
The temperatures are based on a 30-year average, and the 1981-2010 period replaces those used during the 1971-2000 period. The update occurs every 10 years and covers 7,500 locations.
Every state showed at least some increase in high and low temperatures. "The climate of the 2000s is about 1.5 degrees warmer than the 1970s, so we would expect the updated 30-year normals to be warmer," said National Climate Data Center Director Thomas Karl.
As you can see from the graphic, above, Florida high temperatures were among the least changed in the nation, along with Missouri. More radical changes took place in the upper Midwest and in parts of the Rocky Mountain states. (Image credit: NOAA. Click on map for larger original.)

Happy Independence Day. And now a word from our sponsor. Thomas Jefferson was keenly interested in the weather and recorded data wherever he happened to be. Most of the time that was at Monticello, his Virginia home, but he also noted conditions in Philadelphia before signing the Declaration of Independence in 1776. At 2 p.m., it was cloudy and 76 degrees, according to Smythweather.net.
At Monticello, Jefferson checked the temperature every day at dawn, the coolest part of the day, and again between 3 p.m. and 4 p.m. to record the high.
He was constantly comparing the weather in Europe to that of Viriginia and used the data to promote the new nation. "On the whole I find nothing anywhere else in point of climate which Virginia need envy to any part of the world," Jefferson said.

ANNALS OF HISTORY about the assassination of John F. Kennedy and the accession of Lyndon Johnson to the Presidency. Writer gives a detailed account of the events of November 22, 1963. Vice-President Johnson and his wife, Lady Bird, were in Fort Worth, accompanying President Kennedy and the First Lady on a tour of Texas. Tells about Johnson's feud with Senator Ralph Yarborough, who had refused to ride in the same car as Johnson the previous day. Also discusses an investigation by the Senate Rules Committee into a scandal surrounding Johnson's protégé, Robert G. (Bobby) Baker. The scandal had thus far concentrated on the man known in Washington as "Little Lyndon," but the stories were beginning to focus more and more on Johnson himself. In New York, there was also going to be a meeting that morning—of about a dozen reporters and editors in the offices of Life's managing editor, George P. Hunt. During the past week, reporters who had been sent to Texas to investigate the Vice-President's finances had found areas ripe for inquiry. The Presidential party flew from Fort Worth to Dallas that morning and went by motorcade into the city. As Lyndon Johnson's car made its slow way down the canyon of buildings, what lay ahead of him on that motorcade could, in a way, have been seen by someone observing his life as a foretaste of what might lie ahead if he remained Vice-President: five years of trailing behind another man, humiliated, almost ignored, and powerless. The Vice-Presidency, "filled with trips... chauffeurs, men saluting, people clapping... in the end it is nothing," as he later put it. He had traded in the power of the Senate Majority Leader, the most powerful Majority Leader in history, for the limbo of the Vice-Presidency because he had felt that at the end might be the Presidency. Now there was another man who might want the Presidency: the younger brother, Robert F. Kennedy, the Attorney General, whose dislike and contempt—"hatred" is not too strong a term—for him was well known in Washington. Describes the shots fired at Kennedy's car as the procession passed through Dealey Plaza. Tells about events at Parkland Memorial Hospital, where Kennedy died, and the decision by Johnson to go to Air Force One. Describes two telephone calls between Johnson and Robert Kennedy in the hours after the assassination. The dispute over the conversations later became a crucial element in the great blood feud between them. Considers why Johnson decided to have the oath of office administered in Dallas.

The General Assembly (GA) Program Development Group (PDG) is a diverse team of Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) staff and members of the GA Planning Committee charged with identifying excellent General Assembly programming aligned with the vision and mission of the UUA and its member congregations.
All program proposals must have been submitted by Friday, November 1, 2013. Though the form was short, it still required the clear description of a fully designed 75-minute event (workshop, worship, etc.). Proposers also had the option to propose a 180-minute event that would occur during two workshop slots scheduled back-to-back. Proposers must assume that there will be participation of people of all abilities and of all generations in all General Assembly activities.
The PDG is currently reviewing all submitted program proposals and will select events for inclusion on the General Assembly schedule. The PDG will select up to 115 programs for inclusion; selection notices will be sent to all applicants in January.
Religious life in America is changing dramatically and rapidly. Fewer people are identifying with specific denominations and most mainline religions are losing members in droves. People now find many outlets and places of engagement for their spiritual lives. Current studies of faith in America show that there is a movement toward a liberal, fluid kind of faith that doesn't fit with traditional denominational identity and structure. We already know that for every adult member of Unitarian Universalist (UU) congregations, there are at least three non-members who also consider themselves to be Unitarian Universalist.
A core purpose of our faith is to help people grow in spirit and in service. We believe that our faith provides a path for each of us to unlock our transformational capacity to serve the world with love. We want to expand our faith not just to grow Unitarian Universalism, but also to better achieve this transformational purpose. Therefore, the General Assembly Planning Committee, the UUA Board of Trustees and the Administration want the General Assembly in 2014 help our association live into a future where our "Love Reaches Out" to share our faith both within and beyond our congregations' walls.
This is a continuation of a conversation started with UUA President Peter Morales's January 2012 paper Congregations and Beyond invites Unitarian Universalists to reimagine how we might help to shape liberal religion in a new age. To become the kind of multigenerational, multicultural and covenantal faith communities people are looking for today, congregations and communities in many forms are learning to use interactive technology and other non-traditional formats to put our values in service to the world. To merit consideration, program proposals submitted for the 2014 GA should engage with one or more facets of how we can better share our message of Love.
Because this is an adaptive challenge, there is an understanding that there are no easy or sure answers, so we encourage the spirit of experimentation, e.g. learning from mistakes as well as from successes. Workshops that share examples of something that you are currently trying are encouraged—even if your experiment doesn't feel "ready for prime time." More detailed selection criteria are listed below.
Selection will be based on the degree to which proposals:
Additional criteria include:
Private events are invitation-only and are not listed in the GA program book. GA registration is not required for attendance. Examples of private meetings include business meetings, food functions, receptions, pre/post GA meetings (usually business or conference) of organizations for their own agendas. Requests for private events must come from an authorized sponsoring organization. Space is assigned based on availability.
The use of UUA contracted meeting space designated for private events may only be reserved by authorized sponsoring organizations: UUA staff, UUA elected committees, Board appointed committees, Associate Member Organizations (Unitarian Universalist Service Committee and Unitarian Universalist Women's Federation), and UUA Related Organizations listed as either Professional Organizations or Theological Schools.
Other UUA Related Organizations may request the use of UUA contracted meeting space for a private meeting of their organization. Requests may be made by email to the GA Planning Committee in care of firstname.lastname@example.com. Requests are due by December 15th. The GA Planning Committee will review requests at their January meeting.
If you have suggestions or requests for GA programming, please contact email@example.com or a member of the GA Planning Committee.

Clinical Infectious Diseases (11.07.12)
A study by Katherine Tassiopoulos, of the Harvard School of Public Health, and colleagues examined sexual behavior of children born with HIV infection and who are now at the age of being sexually active. The researchers conducted cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses of youth aged 10–18 years who are enrolled in the US-based Pediatric HIV/AIDS Cohort Study between 2007 and 2009.
Of 330 youth, 92 (28 percent) reported having sexual intercourse, and 57 (62 percent) of the sexually active youth reported having unprotected sex. Only 33 percent disclosed their HIV status to their first partner. Youth living with a relative other than the biological mother had higher odds of engaging in unprotected sex than those living with a nonrelative. Of the 92 youth who were sexually active, 39 had a high viral load (greater than or equal to 5,000 copies/ml) after sexual initiation. Additional testing for 37 of the 39 youth indicated drug resistance.
The researchers concluded that as youth born with HIV become sexually active, certain behaviors can place their sexual partners at risk of acquiring HIV infection—and even drug-resistant HIV. The researchers recommend interventions for such teens including a focus on condom use, disclosure, treatment adherence, and safe sex practices to prevent further transmission of HIV/AIDS.

Alakazam tends to be walled by Snorlax, Blissey, and Tyranitar, but if you can put them at bay—not easy, but possible—Alakazam will rampage through the rest of the other team. It has many options to attack, support the team, or help itself set up, sometimes all in the same set. Recover ensures that all of these can be pulled off. Another beautiful thing about Alakazam is that it outspeeds Raikou and Starmie. Spikes and poison work well here by putting many things in a range where they can be 2HKOed by Psychic. Be careful around potential status afflictions, because any of them, especially paralysis, will seriously compromise his potential.
This is a straightforward attacking Alakazam with some paralysis support thrown in. Psychic and Recover are must-haves, and Fire Punch is nice for Steel-types and Exeggutor. You can also use ThunderPunch for the likes of Starmie, Hidden Power Dark for other Psychics in general, or even Ice Punch (though Jynx does Ice/Psychic better). If Alakazam can't smite the opponent with either of its attacks, leave it a nice Thunder Wave to think about. Toxic is a useful alternative here, as it can soften up special walls like Snorlax and Blissey.
Other Options
While Alakazam is a great attacker, it can also support decently. Alakazam can set up both Light Screen and Reflect for the entire team. Encore is also a great choice to catch Curse users and other setup Pokemon by surprise and give you free turns to attack or switch. Finally, Counter is a surprisingly delightful choice for a Pokémon with as horrible a Defense as Alakazam. When they attack it for massive damage, it can Counter back for even more massive damage and (more than likely) a KO. If you hit Snorlax with a Psychic on the switch and use Counter when Snorlax attacks with Double-Edge, you will prevail.
Checks and Counters
Blissey and Snorlax present problems with their good HP and Special Defense and can easily wear Alakazam down. Blissey can use Toxic or Light Screen, while Snorlax is capable of hitting much harder with Double-Edge or Body Slam.
Dark-type Pokemon are also good checks with their immunity to Psychic. They can all potentially carry Pursuit to punish Alakazam for switching out, and Houndoom and Tyranitar can also carry Crunch.
Psychic- and Steel-type Pokemon are viable with a Psychic resistance, but beware of a potentially super effective Fire Punch, ThunderPunch, or Hidden Power.

The galvanized tank might have been there because of high iron content in the water. Most bladder tanks bladders do not last 10 years, and the one you found on sale will probably only last half that long.
I would start by making sure your old bladder tank is really working properly (maintaining proper air charge). If you want to go bigger, I would get a quality tank that you will not find at the big box stores.

This year we have "Thanksgivukkah." Thursday brings not only Thanksgiving -- BUT the first full day of the Jewish eight-day festival of lights as well.
Bob DeCastro joins us in Brentwood to tell us how this unique holiday will be celebrated.
Sage Pine Nuts Challah Stuffing
Spread challah cubes in single layer in a large baking pan. Bake, stirring occasionally, until golden brown for about 10 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
In a large, heavy frying pan over medium high heat, melt the butter. When hot, add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally until golden brown for about 20 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Add mushrooms and celery and cook, stirring frequently until tender for about 8 minutes. Add to the challah cubes, along with the tarragon and parsley. Add stock or broth to the same pan and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits. Add to the bread and season to taste with salt and pepper. Mix in the eggs.
To bake the stuffing in a turkey, fill the amities with the stuffing and truss. Increase the roasting time of the turkey by 30 minutes.
Butter (can use margarine) a baking dish large enough to hold the remaining stuffing. Cover with foil and bake alongside the turkey for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until top is golden brown, about 30 minutes longer.
To bake all the stuffing in a baking dish, preheat oven 325 degrees.
Butter a 13 x 9 x 2 inch baking dish and spoon stuffing into it. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until the top is golden brown, about 30 minutes longer.
Makes about 12 cups of stuffing; enough for a 16 lb. turkey.
Sweet Potato Latkes with Sour Cream and Cranberry Sauce
In a large bowl, combine scallions and eggs. Add flour, salt, ginger cardamom, and pepper and stir until incorporated. Add both kinds of potatoes and toss until combined and evenly coated.
Fill a large skillet with about 1/2 inch oil. Place over medium heat until oil is almost smoking. (To test, drop a small bit of batter into the skillet; it should sizzle upon contact).
Working in batches so as not to crowd skillet, carefully spoon about 2 tbsp. batter into oil for each latke. Lightly tamp down to flatten. Cook, turning once, until golden on each side, 2-3 minutes. Using a slotted spatula, transfer to a paper-towel-lined wire rack to drain. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately with sour cream and applesauce.
Challah/Apple Bread Pudding
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees. Grease individual ramekins or a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with the margarine. Prepare a custard by whisking together non-dairy creamer, eggs, sugar, and vanilla bean seeds in a large bowl. Add challah and apples; mix well. Let sit for 10 minutes to allow challah to absorb egg mixture. Place the challh mixture into the prepared pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until golden. Drizzle honey over the top and serve.
Pumpkin Donut
Combine all ingredients and mix well. Fry batter in oil at high heat. Let cool and add icing (optional).
Sour cream icing:
Combine all ingredients, except sprinkles and mix well. Add icing and sprinkles to donuts.
Horseradish-Chives Mashed Potatoes
Boil potatoes until soft, and drain. Combine all ingredients into a large mixing boil and mix until creamy.

April 20 is Record Store Day, one of those holidays where you need to take extra care because of all the erratic drivers out on the road. It's not that they've been drinking--it's that they're crazily driving from indie record store to indie record store, trying to find that very, very limited edition that the other outlets are already out of or never got in.
For the eighth annual Record Store Day, more than 350 exclusive releases are hitting stores for the first (and, in some cases, only) time. Most are on vinyl, which should make the occasion a banner day for turntable sales. Plenty are CD issues, though, which should satiate music fans who still can't fathom the practicality of the 45-rpm revival. Lest you think that an actual 78-rpm record is the weirdest instant rarity being released, you can thank thank MGMT for being forward/backward-thinking enough to put out a cassette-only release.
Here are 20 of the most highly covetable items, available in such limited quantities that you may want to consider doing a campout outside your nearest indie retailer Friday night:
MGMT, "Alien Days" (cassette single). Limited edition: 2,000 copies. Hey, 1980s veterans--remember the "cassingle"? That little-remembered format makes a comeback with MGMT's brand-new song. Sadly, the band reportedly chickened out of making this a truly cassette-only release and will also be including a download code with the item, so you won't have to scour your area Goodwills for your city's one remaining Walkman.
White Stripes, Elephant (double LP). Jack and Meg aren't making music together anymore, but that doesn't mean the White Stripes-related rarities will ever stop, as Jack White is the modern master of the instant collectors' item. This year he's the official spokesperson or mascot for Record Store Day, and his personal contribution to the vinyl-awareness cause is a 10th anniversary issue of the Stripes' most popular album, spread across two LPs--one white, the other black and red.
Dave Matthews Band, Live Trax Vol. 1 Vinyl Box (LP boxed set). Limited edition: 500 copies. No, we're not missing a zero there. Not to be defeatist, but you might as well give up on this one now, or hit eBay starting Saturday afternoon.
The Flaming Lips, Zaireeka (LP boxed set). Limited edition: 7,500 copies. In 1997, the avant-rockers released a four-CD set in which the discs were designed to be played simultaneously as an exercise in uber-quadrophonic sound. Now--at last!--the work is coming out on vinyl...which, yes, will require four very exacting and simultaneous needle drops to be properly heard. Well, it's the thought that counts, right?
Swedish House Mafia, The Singles (vinyl boxed set). Record Store Day may mostly be about the rock, but EDM rears its pulse-pounding head with this first-time collection of all of the electronic dance trio's singles on vinyl.
Willie Nelson, "Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die" (numbered vinyl single). Colored vinyl is a consistent theme throughout every Record Store Day rollout, and oftentimes the color chosen is not at all random, as in the case of Willie's rollicking death wish. Who says it's not easy being green? The version on the A-side is a collaboration with Snoop, Jamey Johnson, and Kris Kristofferson, as already heard on Willie's last studio album, but the flip has a brand-new Nelson solo rendition.
Pulp, "After You" (12-inch vinyl single). Limited edition: 4,000 copies. James Murphy of LCD Soundsystem produced this track, previously officially available only as a download to attendees of a Coachella Cruise.
John Coltrane, Newport '61 (LP). Limited edition: 200 copies. Only 200 units for this previously unreleased 1961 Newport Jazz Festival set? Seriously? That's a limited-edition supreme.
OMD, English Electric (CD/DVD boxed set). Limited edition: 300 copies. This elaborate multi-disc package with booklets, foldouts, photo prints, etc. may be the only item in this year's RSD to come with a personally autographed "certificate of authenticity." You read that 300 figure right, so if you're an '80s techno-pop fan...OMG, and ASAP, among other acronyms.

The Queen Elizabeth in Southern California
The Queen Elizabeth rarely comes to Los Angeles, but Tuesday was one of those great exceptions. The Cunard ship was on a round-the-world journey heading to the Panama Canal and then east to New York when it stopped off for a royal rendezvous with its old, sedentary sister, the Queen Mary in Long Beach. Before the two met in Long Beach amid fireworks and whistles, the ship docked in San Pedro for a few hours. I had an opportunity to take a quick tour and soak up some of the grandeur aboard this luxury liner. Here's what life looks like aboard ship.
